*considering where in the adaptive cycle of growth, conservation, release, and reorganization the system may be and what the implications of that are,
*and the importance of looking at what's happening at different scales and how they interact.

Taken together, this way of thinking and planning can profoundly alter the way we seek to manage our human and natural resources. The authors provide plenty of case studies to demonstrate the principles discussed, which I think increases the book's effectiveness.
